Coffee, which actually turned out to be drinks and dinner, went really well I think. We talked about why I became interested in AI and what made me interested in the particular organization. After my long explaination was over she talked about how she was interested in women taking more leadership roles in the chapter. We seem to be meshing really well. We are supposed to get together with some other women from the chapter in the next couple of weeks to do another after work dinner and also so that I can meet more women from the organization and they can meet me.
She did say that she hasn't ever been involved with AI before, but she was going to do research to learn more about the process and what exactly she needs to do I the chapter decides they want me. All in all I think the initial meeting went very well.
As a response to Rho's comments I flat out asked the representative from the organization, who is a Grand Council member, that if I didn't know any members that I was at a standstill and she said yes. No attempt was made to put me in contact with a local alumnae chapter or anything so I think the option is closed.
I am really encouraged by the meeting last night and I will let you guys know what happens!
